Chapter 12 Yaolou

He leaned closer, and his calloused fingers, which had been holding weapons for many years, caressed Jiang Yu's sideburns and combed her hair.

Jiang Yu met his light and waveless eyes, and felt a tightness in his heart.

He was very unhappy, Jiang Yu could feel it.

But he suppressed his anger, and she refused to bow her head. The tension seems to be on the verge of breaking out.

After a moment of stiffness, Shen Yanxi sighed helplessly, and pulled Jiang Yu to his side: "I know that I call you to eat every day, and I don't say that I will let Chun Tao pass on to me when I am called away by the prefect." ”

Jiang Yu's long eyelashes blinked, and she said softly: "His food is very difficult to eat, I plan to go to your place to eat it after I come out." ”

The four eyes met, and the undercurrent under the eyes was surging. "Okay," Shen Yanxi said, "I'll let Qiang Ji go and make the food hot." ”

The two walked down the pavilion one after the other, and Shen Yanxi gently wrapped around Jiang Yu's wrist bone and never let go.

Jiang Yu looked down at the hands handed over by the two, let him hold them, and did not break free.

A commotion sounded on the shore of the lake in the distance: "Help! Someone's coming! ”

Jiang Yu looked at it suspiciously, "Go over and take a look?" ”

"Qiang's disease." Shen Yanxi beckoned him to go first.

When the two approached, they saw several maids by the lake leaning on the ground and crying bitterly, and there was a woman drenched in water lying on the ground

Shen Yanxi asked, "What's going on?" ”

Qiang Ji took off his coat and twisted the water droplets: "Master, the maids in the house found a corpse in the water, I fished it up and took a look, and found that it was the concubine of the prefect's family, who fell into the lake and drowned at some point." ”

Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment, it turned out to be Wang Fu.

Shen Yanxi instructed: "Send someone to inform the prefect." Qiang Ji took the order and left.

Jiang Yu beckoned the crying maids to step forward: "Don't cry, what is going on?" ”

One of the maidservants looked up and wept.

"Lord Wang, Jiang ...... Miss Jiang, last night the princess said that she was bored and wanted to go alone, so let the slaves and maids go back. But they did not come back early this morning, and the slaves and maidservants searched everywhere, and when they found a corpse in it by the lake. “

Feeling depressed? It's not because of the ghost tricking her a few days ago, but it was a long time ago, it shouldn't be

These days, Wang Fu didn't come to find Jiang Yu's stubble, and Jiang Yu was happy to be idle and didn't pay attention to her movements.

It's just an insignificant concubine, and she didn't want to see her again, but she was already a corpse.

Shen Yanxi said: "There are three possibilities, the first is to commit suicide by throwing yourself into the lake late at night, the second is to be pushed down, and the third is to fall into the lake." ”

Jiang Yu observed the lake and Wang Fu's corpse and was still thinking, so she heard Shen Yanxi say: "No matter which one it is, it's none of your business and mine, just wait for Jiang Zhihe to deal with it, let's go, go eat." ”

The handmaidens around were still in a panic.

Shen Yanxi pulled Jiang Yu and walked away.

Jiang Yu was still thinking: "She shouldn't have any deep hatred for the person who wants to kill her in the mansion." ”

Shen Yanxi said: "The secret guards have been guarding, and no one can sneak in from outside. In the house, a concubine, the biggest goal of eating and drinking every day is to compete for favor, the eldest lady is also from the portal and has no interest in competing with her at all, and there is a son who is studying abroad, and there is no reason to commit suicide. ”

Shen Yanxi can be said to have touched the bottom of the prefect's mansion carefully.

Chun Tao also said that there are two sons in the family who are studying abroad, one is born to the eldest lady and the other is born to Wang Fu.

Wang Fu's death was not good at all.

Back in Shen Yanxi's courtyard, after a while, large and small exquisite dishes were brought up, and he said, "I don't want to do this, let's eat quickly." ”

The food is full of aroma and makes people feel appetizing when they smell it. Jiang Yu sandwiched a piece of meat and put it in her mouth, delicious, delicious.

Seeing that Shen Yanxi also picked up the chopsticks, his heart moved, and he wondered: "Isn't the prince full yet?" ”

"I'll use it with you a little more." Shen Yanxi said.

Jiang Yu really doesn't like to eat alone, in the past, she dined with all kinds of male pets in the princess's mansion, and after she was reborn, she ate spring peaches together every day.

Qiang Ji, who was guarding outside the door, pursed his lips and sneered: "My master is very affectionate, I didn't eat it myself without inviting you, and I deliberately went to play chess on the way back." ”

When Jiang Yu came, she found that there were a lot of flowers and plants newly arranged in Shen Yanxi's yard, and in addition to the recliner, there was now an extra swing.

Shen Yanxi noticed that she usually likes to bask in the sun in the yard, so she asked someone to arrange it.

After eating, Jiang Yu took the rabbit to the swing.

Shen Yanxi was dealing with political affairs in the study, he usually didn't go to the court, and the folds that needed him to pass the purpose were handed directly to his palace.

Now that he lives in Huaizhou, the excerpt will be sent by the secret guard again. But there will always be delays.

Jiang Yu stroked the rabbit's hair comfortably, and the rabbit did not run around, obediently crawling on Jiang Yu's lap, squinting and enjoying the stroke.

She noticed that the rabbit's fur had turned white these days, and after a moment of contemplation, she decided to give the rabbit a bath.

"Good boy, do you want to take a bath? I'll take you to wash it for nothing~"

With that, Jiang Yu got up and walked towards the small kitchen in Shen Yanxi's courtyard.

Placing the rabbit on the ground, she rummaged through it to find a suitable wooden basin and held the contents of the basin in a wooden barrel. Then he put some water in a basin and put it on the ground.

When she turned her head, she couldn't see the figure of the rabbit, and Jiang Yu searched around while shouting obediently.

Just when Jiang Yu found the rabbit in a pile of vegetable leaves, Shen Yanxi's gloomy face pushed the door and came in.

When Shen Yanxi came out to look for Jiang Yu, she found that she was gone, and asked the secret guard to know that she had come to the kitchen, and listened to her warmth and affection all the way, looking for the call of the rabbit one by one.

I was inexplicably irritable in my heart.

"Lord Wang?"

Jiang Yu shouted Shen Yanxi

"Lord, do you want to come and take a bath together?"

“???”

Shen Yanxi's facial muscles twitched uncontrollably, "What are you doing?" ”

"I'll bathe the bunny again."

Saying that, Jiang Yu squatted down and put the little white rabbit next to the water basin, afraid that the rabbit would drown if she put it in, so she carefully threw the water on the rabbit with her hands.

The rabbit kicked up on its hind legs and tried to run away, "Come back." Jiang Yu grabbed the rabbit's head.

The rabbit fluttered indiscriminately, "Why are you not well-behaved, wash your white, or I don't like you~"

There is only one small window in the kitchen that can let in a piece of light, and Jiang Yu's basin is placed in the center of the light field, and her white and tender little hands jump back and forth with the shaking of the light and the light.

Flickering light and dark.

Shen Yanxi stood at the door of the kitchen and watched her interaction with the rabbit, standing quietly and silently.

"Don't stand still, help me get some soap leaves." Jiang Yu, who had successfully wet the rabbit fur, skillfully ordered Shen Yanxi to come.

Shen Yanxi clapped his hands, and a secret guard appeared outside the door.

"Go find some soap horns and soap leaves."

The secret guard received the order, and after a while, Jiang Yu successfully got the rabbit's hair and rubbed out a few white bubbles.

"We want to be a little rabbit who loves cleanliness, and don't touch others casually in the future~"

Jiang Yu refers to the ghost paw of Qiang Disease, and she has seen Qiang Disease touch the rabbit's hair back and forth more than once while feeding.

Jiang Yu looked back at Shen Yanxi with a smile: "The prince is here to wash the little rabbit, I'll change the water." ”

Shen Yanxi coughed lowly, like words? The prince who charged into battle and slashed ants with a sword. Want to bathe a rabbit that can be strangled with one hand?

After struggling for a moment, the noble prince decided to change the bath water for the rabbit.

Jiang Yu looked at Shen Yanxiqing's pale face for a while, and laughed lowly. Watching him go out to pour water.

As if talking to himself, he asked the rabbit in his hand: "How can you say there is such a person?" ”

It's unpredictable, and I can't think of what his purpose is.

Shen Yanxi put the basin containing the changed water in front of Jiang Yu, and took two steps back arrogantly, holding her hands on her chest and waiting for Jiang Yu to rinse the rabbit clean.

"Oooo Jiang Yu hugged the rabbit and got up and shook it at Shen Yanxi.

Shen Yanxi looked at the wet rabbit in her arms with a dark face, thinking back to the last time she ate charcoal-grilled rabbit meat.

Jiang Yu ignored his black face, and was about to walk out with the rabbit in his arms, when Shen Yanxi's hoarse voice came: "It's windy outside, will the rabbit be infected with the cold." ”

Jiang Yu was stunned, and looked back at Shen Yanxi in confusion: "Huh? Will it? ”

Do rabbits catch colds too?

Jiang Yu lowered her head and looked at the rabbit in her arms, feeling the rabbit's little heart beating one by one.

"Yes, Lord Wang, you are really careful, the reminder is too in place." Jiang Yu looked down at her clothes and turned around, and then her eyes fell on the hem of Shen Yanxi's clothes.

The kitchen knife should be able to cut off the material of the clothes.

Shen Yanxi saw through her caution and was anxious: "Hey, don't you bring a handkerchief with you when you go out as a girl!" ”

Jiang Yu replied with a smile: "No." ”

A handkerchief was thrown onto the rabbit's head: "Take it, wrap it." ”

Shen Yanxi contributed his handkerchief.

She happily took the bunny and covered it tightly. teased: "Wow - little rabbit, look, this prince is so loving." ”

The secret guard on the eaves watched his prince come out of the small kitchen with a black face, and guarded his post tremblingly, for fear that the flames of war would splash on him.

Qiang Ji walked quickly to Shen Yanxi from a distance: "Master, there has been an abnormality in Yaolou recently. They should have found traces of the prince's coming to Huaizhou. ”

Shen Yanxi's brows instantly furrowed fiercely, "Strengthen your vigilance, and double the number of people deployed." ”

"Yes." Qiang was ordered to do it.

Yaolou is a well-known mysterious organization in the rivers and lakes, with men and women as members, and proficient in strange arts.

The influence is very wide, and even the court is secretly promoting a lot.

In her previous life, Jiang Yu's safe ticket number also bought a lot of news from Yaolou.

In recent years, Yaolou has assassinated Shen Yanxi more than once or twice, and it is rumored that someone bought his life.

Yaolou earns money by taking on killer missions, and as long as someone pays for it, he will continue to make assassination missions until the target task dies.
